Journal covers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I made these journal covers in November and December, but didn’t get a chance to post them.<\/p>\n

TFQ told me that she made journal covers for all of her journals. I got tired of using the blue one<\/a>, so I made a quick one (the b\/w dot) and thought I would just transfer that cover to each new journal. I tired of that plain cover\u00a0 very quickly. It showed me why piecing a journal cover is important: the piecing adds visual interest. I left the b\/w dots on the journal for which I made it after I wrote the last page and made yet another journal cover with the Anna Maria Horner Innocent Crush Grape. I don’t love\/adore that fabric, but there is something about it I like. It is also a more complex and, thus, a more interesting fabric than the dots.<\/p>\n

I think I will see about making a new cover for each new journal I start. I don’t know if I will piece the next one. I have plenty of fabric and can make a journal cover in a half an hour if I don’t piece it. On the other hand, pieced covers are more interesting and I could piece bits together as leaders and enders. My scrap basket is starting to overflow and I need to do something with the scraps. Stay tuned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
